There are tons of basic crud apps out there making people millionaires.

Name three.

Economics drives both demand and supply. CRUD apps are easy to make; the market for most CRUD-only apps is heavily saturated with competitors, so the differentiating value of your application is not likely to be your ability to perform CRUD operations. Put it this way - if you come up with a CRUD app that does something staggeringly valuable, expect strong competitors in days not years. Your chance to make millions is small.

I heard about this Facebook thing the other day. They seem to be doing all right for themselves.
